Description

LiquidCache aims to be a research project that is "feet on the ground, head in the clouds"; specifically,

  1. "Head in the clouds" means exploring novel caching mechanisms and designing cool systems that people have never built before.
  2. "Feet on the ground" means we aim for a production-ready system and stay relevant to realistic use cases.

=======

This is an epic issue tracking our progress to explore the next big thing in the novel caching systems, aka, things that are in the clouds.

The next big thing is to decide what should happen when the cache server runs out of memory/network/disk, aka, LiquidEviction.
